More Drug Take Back Events Scheduled

Area law enforcement will be holding several drug take back events in Fort Dodge over the next few weeks. The drug take back events have been going on for three years, and help people get rid of potentially expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs. On Friday, April 25 from 4-6pm, residents can drop off prescription drugs at either Hy-Vee or Daniel Pharmacy. Also on May 14, another drug take back event will be held from 2-4pm at the Elderbridge Agency. Webster County Sheriff Jim Stubbs said last year, about 17 pounds of unused drugs were turned in locally.
